Good Girl Reform School
(Fall 2020)
Name one good girl who has changed the world.
You can’t. Because she can’t.
Name one good girl who is paving the way for others to living their best lives by living hers in deep alignment to her epic imagination.
Kind of hard, isn’t it?
That’s because it is the Good Girl’s job to maintain the status quo.
A Good Girl is moderate, in temperament and appetite. She avoids conflict, responds in a timely fashion, considers others first, and is an expert at making do. She never outshines anyone, but she never falls behind, either.
She adapts and harmonizes, responding to circumstances, and she doesn’t ruffle feathers—which is precisely why she can never be a catalyst for change.
These qualities have been passed down and enforced—by society, other women, and ourselves. Good Girls exist because women are good at what they do, and for millennia, the best an ambitious woman could hope for was to marry as well as she could.
Good Girl conditioning pops up in myriad sneaky ways—in your rush to smooth the tension at every family gathering, the unnecessary disclaimers you offer before delivering a well-rehearsed presentation, the way you apologize to your intern, even though the feedback you gave him was clear, necessary, and in no way unkind.
Maybe you’re nodding your head, cataloguing all the Good Girl behaviors you engage in.
And maybe you’re thinking: “Hey, fuck that. I’m no Good Girl.”
Most of the women I know and teach are powerful agents of their own destinies, moving through the world in impressive ways.
But the truth is that very, very few of us escape Good Girl conditioning entirely. Good Girl Conditioning is so universal and sneaky it may lie dormant for weeks and months, or only show up in certain relationships, or under duress.
In those moments, it can render the most powerful woman overburdened, disempowered, and far from both her joy and agency.
That moment you said yes to doing something that is not for you to do, and your doing it serves no one.
That moment where you need or want something, but out of fear of sounding bossy or needy, you ask for far less than you need in a way that makes you feel queasy.
Those many moments where you don’t even catch yourself performing invisible labor for people that will never see it, nor appreciate it, as though this extra service that eats up your time is simply the good girl tax we pay for being women on this planet.
No more Good Girl Tax!
Because we need you. All of you.
Right now, the world needs women who are using their life force to redefine what it means to be a woman today: women leading from a place where they're full, not from a place where they're empty, exhausted and not asking anybody for support.
In this masterclass, we will unpack the roots of Good Girl Conditioning, what can be done to step out of the pattern and learn tools to wield power and influence in positive, loving and generative ways.
I hope you will join us.
Love,

EVERY woman needs to know this work to navigate the patriarchy from a place of strength and certainly.”
